I have been using fullcander since version 1.3 on many projects (currently on 2.2 after a massive rewrite)

You just need access to the HTML markup, include the script and there is a plugin to include Google calendar feeds. Also, getting RSS feeds (or any other feed) and parsing it a bit with jQuery (or server if avaialble) its VERY simple.

Sorry, I never had time to listen live to the dev summit as I was working.

Here is a youtube video I uplaoded in 2011 and demonstrates how I integrated google calendear, 3rd party webservices and local server events for a Golf Club Calendar, using v1.3(which was horrendoues but v2+ is much better now :) ) http://youtu.be/UKUu9KJxunI

Right now the calendar page uses the HTML embed option from Google. This seems to offer much of the same interface, but more customizable, so it might be worthwhile to look at. Does it automatically detect and handle the user's time zone when displaying events?

Also, the video of the dev summit was made available after-the-fact if you want to catch up. :smile: Check out http://jbdev.community/ too for other info.

OK I did a mock up .

http://jb.kula.solutions/

It shows the JB Google Calendar feed in London Timezone. Click on an entry and it will show you the time, in Google Calendars original entry time zone. That gcal script can be changed to show other things, let say the show was aired, it could take you the shows page. Maybe make reminders also, etc etc. Its pretty flexible for a javascript only single page.

It also supports like drag and drop, extend events and adding. But all that needs a back end.

We might need some use cases.

PS.Oh yea, I did watch aka, listen to the YT video that is how I got here... but I meant I didn't have time to tune in Live and had to wait a bit.
